What To Expect
Our Ningaloo Reef Snorkel Adventure is a full day (7 hour) land-based tour, exploring some of Ningaloo’s best shore-based snorkel sites (a shore-based snorkel site is where you walk off the beach to enter the water, as opposed to entering the water from a boat or kayak).

5.00Our snorkeling trip with Kolton was fantastic! He explained and shared a lot with us. We snorkeled at Turquoise Bay and Lakeside—both excellent spots. Time flew by, but Kolton was very relaxed and even stayed out with us a bit longer. Highly recommended!

5.00Kolton is a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide as well as being a very competent snorkeller as my wife is a novice snorkeller but with Kolton’s support really enjoyed the trip. We saw all the main sea creatures and lots of fish. The scenery was spectacular and we stopped at the lighthouse for panoramic views of Turquoise Bay. We have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending this tour.
A truly wonderful experience

5.00So glad we booked this tour to explore the Ningaloo reef, as while you can visit these spots independently, the experience, knowledge and guidance shown by our guides Neri & Sam throughout the day was invaluable. The group was small and personal which meant you were never far from a guide who would point various fish and creatures which were so easy to miss when you don't know what to look for. Even the drive to the first snorkel spot was full of interesting stories explaining various things to do with the area and wildlife. Photography was also included with the tour and which has captured some great memories of the day. Thank you both for the best day.
Unmissable experience

5.00We had the best time on this tour. It was a really enjoyable day with Colton. He was a great guide with heaps of knowledge and skill. We learnt a lot about the area which really helped us plan our next few activities. We saw so many amazing turtles, fish, reef sharks, coral, stingray, birds, lizards and dingo. It was truly surreal experience. It was a really windy day so Colton had all the tips to make sure we’re able to experience everything whilst staying safe. The beaches and wilderness are so beautiful. Cool photos of the day were available that afternoon. Nice morning tea and lunch to keep us fuelled. A really wonderful experience, couldn’t recommend higher.
Beautiful...❤️

5.00I thoroughly enjoyed the snorkel tour at 2 spots offshore - Turquoise Bay and Lakeside. Our guide Kolton collected us from our accommodation and immediately put us at ease and started pointing out flora, fauna and other sights. I am an experienced snorkeler but Kolton made sure we were well fitted out with wetsuits, fins and masks and snorkels and we had safety guides/a signal.Though the lagoon waters were choppy we saw many fish, a turtle, stingray, etc. and Kolton led us and pointed out what there was to see. In addition, we had a delicious morning food break and lunch. One suggestion is though the weather is warm, we were chilled by long snorkels and it would have been great to have hot water in a thermos and the ability to drink hot tea/coffee.
Highly recommended!

5.00Joined the Ningaloo Snorkeling Tour today and it was great. Our guide Rosie took us to two different beaches and led us to the best spots, in total we were in water three times. In between there were snacks, lunch at the end, and on the way home the wonderful view from the old lighthouse. During the ride Rosie also told us a lot about the story and some fun facts. Definite recommendation!
